Hello my friends,
I do not know quite why I have waited this long to do a give-away... probably because I think the things I make are not good enough or something like that. I have a very bad habit of being too critical about the things I make ...
Anyway... my first giveaway consists of collection of different hand-made clasps, closures, links etc.
As a lot of you will know, I have over the course of the last year or so, participated in some on-line classes with
Deryn Mentock. I have quite a collection accruing and I know I don't need them all!
Most of my giveaway items were made while participating in Deryn's classes... some have been made while I was experimenting. The textured corkscrew (no 6) is made from instructions in
Handcrafted Wire Findings by Denise Peck and Jane Dickerson. The soldered S-link (no 5) is from taken from the book
Making Silver Chains by Glen F. Waszek.
The small collection awaiting the winner.
Up close... shibori and beaded wraps links.
A different view.
If you wish to take part in the give-away.... please become a follower if you are not already, leave a comment on this post and, if you blog/facebook about the give-away, then you will be given an extra name in the hat! Please leave me your link in the comment box if you have done this.
I will draw the winner's name next Monday the 18th of June.
For those who are worried about being a follower.... like I once was..... 'following' a blog allows you to comment on a blog post if you wish. It also allows me to get to know you a little through those comments and that is something I certainly like to do.
It is still astounding to me that people from all over the world visit my little blog... it would be so nice to 'meet you' through commentary... please think about it. Understand that I do not send any emails etc unless it is a thanks in response to a comment. Now might be the time to come out from lurkdom......!!?
O.K then... let's hope I get some interest??
Hope you are all having a great day... whatever you are doing,
